[PATCH 14/17] uml: fix big stack user

["Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso" <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>]

From: Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Switch this proc from storing 4k of data (a whole path) on the stack to keeping
it on the heap.

Maybe it's not called in process context but only in early boot context (where
in UML you have a normal process stack on the host) but just to be safe, fix it.

While at it some little readability simplifications.
